A contemporary and combative urban artivist, Goin alone sums up the mood of a generation angry and disillusioned with the corruption and inequalities that are constantly gaining ground. Based in Grenoble, France, Goin is priming the charges and leaving creativity’s spark to light the fuse of a new humanist activism.
He heir to the Dadaist movement in the sense of “the good use of the revolt”, stencils what bothers him, inviting the public to question all positions with a dogmatic tendency. An openly subversive attitude that is reflected in his artistic practice in a catalog of works that carry within them the seeds of rebellion. Simple and effective, Goin’s messages are targeted and hit hard, like so many uppercuts inflicted on the media and international political news.
